Sadness
by tonskie
The life I live is but a blur
With nothing to compensate
My heart is always in despair
Always beating slow
Alway halfway dead
People see me laugh
They see me alive
But inside me is a mere feeling
That blinded everyone who comes near
Near to reality
Where my soul is dead and gone
My melancholic presence kills
Destroying everyone
I decided not to go out
Not to push through
But I can’t
I need someone
Someone who could understand
The things that my mind perceives
The roses that I imagined
The life I see
But to my demise
Sadness was brought to me
